Your thoughts please
New routine coming up...deloaded this week. I'm pretty much maxed out on my 5X5 routine. My workout buddy has been on the following schedule with push & pull days, heavy & light days...but different exercises. He has had good results. I'm going to do this for 4-6 weeks, deload, and then start back into the same 5X5 routine that I was doing for as long as I can stand it. After doing the 5X5 with mostly just the "Big Three", I have noticed some areas that I'd like to give a little more attention (lats, traps, calves, upper chest). Going heavy 3 days a week killed me, so this is somewhat of a compromise.
Let me know what you think about frequency, rep range, number of sets on particular exercises if it looks out of place, etc.
